Rendering in UE5 is one of those things that has a lot of misconceptions. The statement "what you see is what you get" applies so crucially to Unreal Engine because the software is so powerful. There are no magical settings in Unreal Engine; purely your capabilities with lighting, composition and storytelling will bring your renders to the next level. When you are at the point where you can render, I hope this video can serve a base to get you started. Doesn't need to be fancy but this is what you need to get started with your first Unreal Engine render.
